The Serbian Composers channel on Youtube looks potentially interesting, for example with works by Stevan Hristić 1885-1958:

Oratorio: Vaskrsenje (Resurrection) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jUtV4w74CLM)

Simfonijska fantazija (Symphonic fantasy) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Qav0CoU6u4)

Rapsodija za klavir i orkestar (Rhapsody for piano and orchestra) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10vvqB-5HOI)

Yes, thank you, Wheesht.

BTW, Hristić's Four Orchestral Suites from the ballet Ohridska Legenda (The Legend of Ohrid) appear on CPO.

The album of the complete (I think) ballet score came out on CD in 2015, and is available on Youtube (https://youtu.be/YHN4Lslj3oI?feature=shared) and on various streaming platforms.
I find myself returning to it regularly – it has a cinematic aspect to it that I find rather attractive.
